The Winter Workshop “Cinema Paradise CAMPUS_Asia: SUAE_Asia 2021” brought to the attention of 14 teams and 5 Universities the challenge of contemporary architectural design in relation to a site of great naturalistic importance. In fact, the Bolognetta Valley, and in particular the location of the cave and the San Nicola waterfall, are located in the Sicilian hinterland, not far from the city of Palermo, in a context-free from the human presence. Here it is strong the necessity to find a design approach that can constitute a mediation between the built and the natural elements. The presence of the Milicia river then is also central to the whole understanding of the site, due to the restriction caused by the presence of the two promontories of Monte Torretta and Pizzo Cicero that allow the formation of natural waterfalls. The project presented by the LabCity Architecture Team aims to find a definition of this place, starting from its potentialities and proposing fun and experiential activities for enhancing and enjoying the site.
